TranScour COURIER SERVICES
The international trade and compliance landscape is rapidly changing, and global supply chains are facing major challenges:
- Globalization and expansion of international trade: forging partnerships with service providers that have expertise across various geographies.
- Increased demand for electronic data sharing: such as advanced shipment notification and sharing of compliance data.
- A global trend towards a risk-based approach: requiring traders to share details of their shipments at any given time, such as pre-load, pre-departure and pre-arrival.
- Increased awareness of regulations and compliance: now becoming a board level issue and a core focus among international trade companies.
- Increased penalties for non-compliance: with an immediate impact on customers’ supply chain and financial bottom line.
- It is in this climate that a Customs Broker with the ability to reduce complexity offers you a genuine competitive advantage.
Freight Security
As part of our efforts to establish a true security culture, TranScour was the first global freight forwarder with an in-house security department and one of the first to receive the Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism (C-TPAT) certification from the US Customs and Border Protection agency. Several of our programs have achieved C-TPAT ‘Best Practice’ accreditation by US authorities.
We manage freight security through a global incident reporting room and more than 100 highly secure locations, more than the entire forwarding and logistics industry. Each of these benefits from instant communication with local and international law enforcement authorities. We also use state-of-the-art risk assessment to ensure your assets are protected.
